Chapter 216 Furious Increment in strength!
After creating a doppelganger and settling it in his shadow dimension, Roy took out the vat with the core purifying elixir and poured its content into hundreds of empty bottles.
He got these bottles from Arlo when he was on the road to the icy, cold realm.
They were once used to store the advanced-grade healing elixir, which he chugged down when he was removing his second limiter. Although he drank then like water that day, he had about hundreds of healing elixirs of different grades left in his inter-spatial ring. The bottles were made out of special materials. It was a waste to throw them, so Roy had stowed them in his subspace.
『Ding! Congratulation. You have created 354 core purifying elixirs.』
Hundred of bottles were filled to the brim with core purifying elixir before the vat was emptied.
“Sandra, please remove it from the room.”
It was so smelly that he called Sandra, asking her to take it away since he had finished using it.
It was a borrowed item. Although he wanted to, he couldn’t take it away as that would be stealing from his cousin. Thus, he was returning it like a gentleman.
‘Did he shit in it or what? Why does it smell so bad?’ Sandra looked at Roy in disgust. He realized she had mistaken him for a pervert who takes dumps in a vat instead of using the bathroom.
“It’s best to destroy it.”
It was so smelly that Sandra wanted to obliterate it.
“Wait, can I keep it?”
Learning what she was planning to do with it, Roy stopped her and asked if he could keep it.
“You want it? Sure, you can have it.”
She looked at him in bewilderment before giving him an affirmative nod.
“Thank you.”
Roy thanked her and put the vat in his subspace.
Meanwhile, excusing herself, Sandra left the smelly room in a hurry as she feared dying from suffocation and disgust if she stayed there a second longer.
Roy smiled. It was easier to create an enormous amount of herb purifying elixir using the vat. And he was planning to create more such elixirs in the future. That’s why he overlooked how bad it smelled and decided to keep it. It could be compared to the spiritual cauldrons he had read in cultivation novels.
He drank two core purifying elixir before taking out a level-2 strength core from his subspace and throwing it into his mouth. Like Delilah and Amelia, and unlike Maya, Aydin, and Julian, he was immune to level 1 cores as his stats were above 49 points. The cores obtained from ferocious monsters could only increase the strength of trainees if their stats were below 49, and they had the raw potential to have their stats increased above that point.
Ferocious monsters were found in dungeons. They dropped cores of the first to the tenth level. Level 1 to 10 monsters in the Far West didn’t do the same, and they were called magic beasts. But level 11 to level 20 magic beasts dropped items like level 2 cores. They were effective on a person with less than 200 points in a basic stat. He got many levels two cores when he looted the corpse of the flesh rippers. He used a few to increase Amelia’s stats to 50 points each and Delilah’s stats to 60 points each. Still, his subspace was filled with them. He used them to increase his basic stats.
『Ding! Congratulation. Your strength has increased to 200 points. You have become immune to level 2 strength cores.』
『Ding! Congratulation. Your agility has increased to 200 points. You have become immune to level 2 agility cores.』
『Ding! Congratulation. Your stamina has increased to 200 points. You have become immune to level 2 strength cores.』
His health point, mana storage, and aura storage were far above 200 and 2000 points, respectively. He couldn’t use the level 2 vitality, magic, and aura cores to increase them.
“My basic stats are higher than Cherry’s, and she was a level 5 aura beast. And I can immediately increase my strength stat even further than 200 points as my third limiter is removed, and I have an item that can increase the strength stat by 30!”
Roy said as he raised his head. His eyes were glittering with the desire to become more stronger. He still had one last item left to increase his strength. He pulled it out of the subspace.
『You have withdrawn a level 3 strength core from your subspace.』
『You have drank nine core purifying elixirs』
『You have consumed the level 3 strength core』
『The massive amounts of impurities inside it were purged by the huge amount of core purifying elixir』
『The energy of the level 3 strength core has been used to strengthen you.』
『Ding! Congratulation. Your strength has increased to 230 points. You have gained lesser immunity against level 3 strength cores. Consuming them would only increase your strength by 20 points now.』
Roy curled his fingers into a fist and felt the vibrant flow of his blood and his unbelievably strong pulse.
“I have never felt so strong before. I am like a level 6 or 7 aura beast in human flesh.”
He thought excitedly as he looked out the window and saw that the dark clouds had disappeared, almost taking the Sun along with them.
The last light of the day was reflected in his eyes a couple of minutes later as the setting Sun went below the horizon, disappearing from his field of vision, and night arrived.
This also acted as his cue to jump into the garden and wait for Damien there.
Not long after, creaking sounds were made as the doors to the manor opened slowly.
Roy, who was standing next to the exit of the garden, turned around and moved his gaze to the source of the haunting sound, and he witnessed an incredible sight.
‘No wonder Sandra wasn’t willing to believe that Damien’s father was Arlo. He looks nothing like him!’ Roy internally screamed.
His eyes fall upon Damien, the golden-eyed lord.
Damien looked like an angel descending from heaven as he stepped down the stairs and entered the garden.
